1978 Map of Sherrill Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Sherrill Hills dominate the central landscape of this high plains region, straddling the historic border where Wyoming and Nebraska meet. In the late 1970s, this area remained a sparse ranching environment defined by its complex drainage network. Water is the primary architect of the terrain here, from the northern flow of Indian Creek and Brush Cr to the more intricate southern systems of Antelope Creek and South Antelope Creek. Notable landmarks like Bald Butte and Turner Peak provide elevation benchmarks above the many draws and seasonal streams that carve the basin. The map records a time when the land was primarily managed for its grazing potential, evidenced by the scattered stock tanks and named creek beds like Grandma Creek and S Bar Creek that tell the story of early territorial ranching claims and family-named landmarks.
